When you use the mentioned size of an a4 pdf file it will make a pdf file in the this size: 209.9 x 297 mm. If you want to create a real a4 sized pdf you can use the following:
PDF_begin_page($pdf, 595.3, 842);
It´s a small step i know... but it´s just the last mm.

The problem is that A4 is *NOT* exactly 210mm*297mm.
(Further more, the 2.835016835017 is incorrect. You convert from mm to pps by dividing by 25.4 and multiplying by 72. Hence the ratio is 2.83464566929133858267).
The code that I posted in may produces correct sizes.
(Except for the "m65" format, sorry. "m65" is the same as "dl", and should return the same values).
